Located in the Plainpalais district, the Théâtre de Marionnettes de Genève (TMG) has a rich history dating back to the 1940s, establishing itself as one of the rare European theaters exclusively dedicated to puppetry. TMG presents captivating performances tailored for audiences ranging from 2 years old to adulthood. Offering approximately 14 shows annually, the theater also hosts workshops, further enhancing its mission to promote the appreciation and exploration of puppetry as a captivating form of artistic expression.
Adapted by Samuel Beck and Marie Godefroy, this contemporary puppet farce revives the Picard rod-puppet tradition of Polichinelle with mischievous energy and social bite. The piece follows Lafleur and Sandrine as they invent increasingly absurd schemes to avoid paying the rent, moving between slapstick, improvisation and sharp social observation. Performers Samuel Beck, Marie Godefroy and Mehdi Kabar bring vivid character work; Romain Landat (construction), Pauline Kocher (puppet costumes) and Luce Amoros (sets) shape a crafted, playful world.
